Tryon. North Carolina Rolling Art Antique Motorcycle and Car Show

November 5, 2016, the fifth annual Tryon Rolling Art Antique Car and Motorcycle show was held in the parking lot of Thompson,s Garden Supply in downtown Tryon, North Carolina.

Guess whose 1961 Harley Davidson Super 10 won second place.  MINE.  It was a popular vote from the general public.  Jim Wright's 1998 Ducati won first place for the general public vote.  Carl's 1960 BMW with a sidecar won the vote from the participants.
Carl is looking good on that 1960 BMW

A 1935 Rolls Royce won for the cars.  A 1957 Chevrolet truck won for the trucks.

Ferrari s, Packards, Pontiacs, Plymouths, Studebakers, Corvettes were all over the place.  Every one looked better than the last one.  There were Shelbys and Volkswagens and MG and bug eyed Sprites.

There were BMW bikes and Harley Davidson bikes and and Kawasaki bikes and  Triumph bikes and Norton bikes and Royal Enfield bikes and BSA bikes and Honda bikes and Indian bikes and Suzuki bikes and Yamaha bikes and racing bikes like you see on TV.

Tryon Rolling Art Motorcycle Show
What a pleasant way to spend a fall afternoon in western North Carolina.  You see old friends and meet new friends.  You see new cars like the new Maserati and old cars like the Model A Ford.

Put Tryon Rolling Art car and Motorcycle show on your calendar for 2017.  If you like antique cars and antique motorcycles, you will love Tryon in the fall.

Ron Climer's 1961 Harley Davidson Super 10
If you are riding your bike to the show from Spartanburg or Greenville, stay off that nasty old interstate.  Take U.S. 176 north from Spartanburg.  U.S. 176 runs right through downtown Tryon.  If you are coming from Greenville, take highway 14 through Greer.  When you get to Landrum, turn left on U S 176 .  Follow that into Tryon.  You can stop Bird Mountain Wine and Spirits at the state line on U S 176 and put on your helmet.  Tell Ken I said hello.

While you are riding in the neighborhood, check out White Oak Mountain http://rondclimer.blogspot.com/2016/02/a-waterfall-motorcycle-destination.html   Ride up White Oak Mountain if you need an adrenaline rush.

If you are riding in from Asheville, take U S 176 from Hendersonville to Saluda to Tryon.  This is one of the best motorcycle roads in North Carolina.

Tryon Rolling Art car and Motorcycle show was A plus.

North Carolina Real Estate Exam in One Question, Are You Ready?

     Last night in my night real estate class, I wanted to make sure that my class understood a straight term, interest only, mortgage with a balloon payment.

     I created a slide entitled, "North Carolina Real Estate Exam in One Question"  Here is the question.  If you are soon taking the North Carolina real estate broker's exam, you might want to play along.  If you borrowed $100,000 at 6% interest rate for ten years, with monthly, interest only, payments, how much would your last payment be?
Do not underestimate the North Carolina real estate broker's exam

I supposed that half the class would miss this "tricky" question.  I was wrong.  One hundred per cent of the class missed this question.  I am certain that two nights earlier I had explained balloon payments and interest only mortgages with the eloquence of Rev. Billy Graham.

     Eighteen blank stares looking at me saying,"Ron, You did not explain this well enough."  I gave them the right answer and reiterated that you need to use a calculator with all math.  I have posted the right answer on my website at http://firstrealestateschool.com/2016/06/north-carolina-real-estate-exam-one-question/

Do the problem.  Answer the question.  Go check yourself.  If you missed this one, keep studying.  Last month, June 2016, fifty seven per cent of first time test takers passed the North Carolina real estate brokers exam.  Twenty six per cent of the repeaters passed.  It costs money to fail the North Carolina real estate broker's exam.  If you think you are ready for the Big One,take my practice exam at
